Has anyone taken a look at net.sf-lovers?  There is a vast number of
postings, and a good number of them are ridiculous.  One poster says
that he reads science fiction because most of the the great writers
active today are in the field.  I read sf, but rarely find anything
more than bare entertainment.  Any comments on different genres?
There are authors who break out of the mold occasionally--I like
Simenon, and a very few sf writers.  Other suggestions, anyone?
